Trapped with a Doctor -
Chapter 182 Baron Was Scared By Cheryl
However, all those voices did not wake Angela up.
It was already afternoon when Angela had woken up. She stared at the ceiling blankly and tried to recall where she was. Finally, after a few minutes, she pieced together that she was in the VVIP ward of the Yao Hospital.
She slowly sat up and saw two people in front of her. Teresa was reading a book, while Lulu was quietly waiting for Angela to wake up.
As soon as Angela propped herself up, Lulu approached her and said, "Sister-in-law... How are you feeling?"
'Why are they here?' Angela thought to herself. Angela didn't show her confusion and replied politely to Lulu, "A lot better. Thank you, Lulu and Aunt Teresa."
"Don't be silly, Angela. You should rest more. I brought chicken soup. Lily made it for you. Have some. It will give you strength." As these words were spoken, Teresa put down her book, elegantly walked toward the table, and opened an thermal lunchbox.
Angela was so touched, but she seemed to forget something important... ... "Lulu, is that girl all right?"
Angela held Lulu's hand, her eyes full of worry.
Lulu looked at her mother, Teresa, first and then turned back to Angela. She whispered, "She is stable, even though she's in a coma. But she... lost the baby."
'In a coma?' Angela was relieved to hear that Cheryl was safe, but she was worried about her being in a coma. She also felt sorry for the baby.
"Angela, did you know the doctors said that Cheryl would have died if it weren't for your first aid assistance? You were so brave!" ...
'So her name is Cheryl...' Angela thought to herself.
"What about Baron?" Angela suddenly asked.
After hearing Angela's question, Lulu glanced at Teresa who looked so worried about Baron. After hesitating, she answered, "Baron got scared by what happened, so now he's in Cheryl's ward. Cheryl's family rushed to the hospital after being told that their daughter fainted and lost her baby. They got really pissed off when they found out that these were caused by Baron. In the morning, they got into an argument with Baron. Now, his parents are appeasing them."
Baron knocked someone up, but he did not want to be responsible for it. He even almost indirectly killed a woman. This became a sensational news in Yao Hospital. Parker, his father tried to handle this by settling in private. He would give as much money as Cheryl's family wanted. Her family was poor, but they had pride. They firmly refused the money Parker offered, determined to sue Baron, Even though they were aware that he was related to the Gu family.
Angela felt sorry to hear about it. She considered herself involved in this because if it weren't for Baron and her bet, Cheryl wouldn't have been there in the race course and she wouldn't have been kicked by a horse.
Teresa noticed Angela's aggrieved and regretful face. She suddenly asked, "What are you thinking about, Angela?"
Angela's tears streamed down her face as she explained, "Cheryl wouldn't have lost her baby if it weren't for my bet with Baron."
When she heard Angela's answer, Teresa patted Angela's shoulder and comforted her, "It's not your fault. I've heard of what had happened. Lulu started it, not you." Then, Teresa glared at Lulu.
It was true that Baron had started the bet, but it was Lulu, her daughter, who brought everyone to the race course.
Angela didn't say anything. She just drank the chicken soup that Lily made for her. After drinking it, Lulu handed her a piece of tissue, so she could wipe her mouth. After a few seconds, she told Teresa, "I'm okay now. Thank you, Aunt Teresa and Lulu."
"That's good to hear, " Teresa was relieved. She hadn't known until now that Angela had hemophobia.
She was really impressed at how Angela was able to do some first aid treatments under such situation.
She found Angela more and more favorable.
After a while, Angela decided to visit Cheryl. Although Teresa and Lulu insisted that Angela should rest first, Angela still went to Cheryl's ward. When they arrived, they found Baron in the corridor because Cheryl's father didn't let him in the ward. He was sitting on a chair, staring into space.
Baron's face was filled with horror. It was totally different from his charming, confident expression.
Angela ignored Baron and walked straight into the ward. Suddenly, a voice shouted, "Get out! Nobody enters this room! Get out!"
The next moment, a middle-aged woman showed up. 'This must be Cheryl's mother.' Angela assumed.
Angela guessed right. The woman seemed to have gotten older after what happened to her daughter. She looked coldly at Lulu and Angela, who were at the door window.
Lulu got a little pissed off by Cheryl's mother's attitude. "Angela saved your daughter's life! How could you treat her like this?"
Hearing Lulu's words, Cheryl's mother looked at them with a sorry smile, "I'm sorry. I didn't recognize you... You must be Angela..."
She grabbed a part of her shirt to rub her teary eyes. Then, she looked to Angela, her face beaming with gratitude.
She was told by the doctor that her daughter wouldn't have survived without Angela's help.
Angela nodded her head, "Yes, I am Angela." She knew how devastated they were, so she tried to comfort her, "Cheer up! Cheryl is going to be fine!"
Cheryl's mother sighed and looked at her daughter, who had tubes all over her face. She started crying again.
Angela didn't want to disturb them any longer and left. Later on, she called Arvin but he didn't pick up.
After Teresa drove her home, she received Arvin's call, "I was presenting at a conference, so my phone was muted. What's wrong, babe? Do you miss me?"
It seemed that Kent hadn't told Arvin that she fainted, otherwise Arvin wouldn't have been this calm.
It was true. Kent was aware of how important the meeting was, so he kept it to himself.
Hearing Arvin's gentle and soft voice, Angela wasn't able to stop her tears, finally she crying out, "Big Wing, can you please save Cheryl?"
Cheryl was just around eighteen or nineteen years old. Most girls of this age were living an innocent and carefree life. But Cheryl had already lost a baby, and she was in a coma. How awful life had treated her! Arvin figured that something bad must have happened. He immediately asked, "What's going on, Angela? Who's Cheryl?"
Angela tried to stop crying and told Arvin what happened today in the race course.
After she finished speaking, Angela realized that Arvin might be in the middle of something. So she asked him,
Are you busy right now, Big Wing? If so, I can tell you all of these when you're free."
"I'm not busy, babe. I'm driving to the hotel right now." Arvin knew that Angela was crying so hard because she was blaming herself. Therefore, Arvin patiently comforted her, "Don't blame yourself, Angela. It was not your fault. You've already done your best. You know that, right?" Arvin's words always hit the spot. Angela felt a bit better.
"As for Cheryl, I'll contact her doctor to ask for her reports. Don't worry, Angela, "Arvin added. He couldn't stand Angela feeling like this, so he would do his best to save Cheryl's life.
"I miss you, big wing." At this moment, Angela lay on her couch beside her empty dining room, thinking about Arvin. She really missed Arvin's hugs.
